Delicious! I made these over the weekend and I used dried cherries and it made them taste so good. The great thing about these is you can make them different each time by adding different ingredients. I will be making these every week now:)

Thank you for this great recipe. We make this about once a week and we've changed the dried fruit and nut. Possibilities are endless.

I modified this recipe but still want to give it a 5-star rating for the inspiration. ;) I used 2 cups of Almond Maple Granola (from this website) to replace the oats and nuts, one tablespoon of canola oil, and added 1/4 cup each natural crunchy peanut butter, chopped dates, cherry Craisins, and 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips. They are a hit with my husband who thinks they taste like oatmeal cookies, and they will provide a nice energy boost for him as a mid-morning snack.

I used one half cup chopped dry roasted peanuts instead of sunflower seeds/walnuts and because I did not have mixed dried fruit, I used organic raisins. I made no other changes or subtitutions. We all loved these bars. Both my kids came home from school and asked for one to snack on until dinner and my husband asked for what was left to be packed in his lunch for tomorrow. Success!

Excellent! I've made these a several times and the whole family loves them. I made the first time I made exactly as called for and the second I used peanut butter. I doubled the batch the 3rd time and put 2 TBSP of dark choc chips. I preferred the pecans over the walnuts. I also used dried cherries, blueberries, craisins and raisins. Excellent and filling!

I love this! I didn't have apple sauce so substituted peanut butter.

EXCELLENT!! These are a great mid-morning or afternoon snack. We are changing our lifestyle to live a more healthy life. We've gone from eating 2-3 big, unhealthy meals to eating 5-6 small, healthy meals/snacks. It's a fabulous way to get in a small 'meal'. It satifies the sweet tooth while giving energy and fiber. I used dried cranberries, mango, pineapple, papaya, & apricots in one batch. I added coconut to another. YUM!! Highly recommended. Thanks!!!!

I am so....glad to find this recipe. I was recently in Canton Ohio on business and we ordered lunch from a neat health conscience resturant that had Power Balls. We had them and they were wonderful....this sounds as it could be the same thing and I will make them today. Thank you.
